Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are usually referred because they are being granted a chance to accept rehab instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is most common among first time offenders, it can occur at any point such as while the person is already incarcerated. There are various types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients can be referred to, and this all depends on which programs are attainable in Lake Charles and the type of drug or alcohol they'll need treatment for.
There are rehab facilities that work exclusively with the criminal justice court system to treat this specific group of clientele, and are usually state funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private substance abuse recovery facilities that can be approved by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client requires or prefers that a different program can't fulfill. The client's legal representation can present such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even addiction recovery centers that provide services from the correctional facilities themselves, in which case clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when engaging in drug and alcohol rehab services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
